RXL SL Carbon 31.8 25.4 Mountain Bike Handle bar 3K Glossy/Matte Bicycle Handlebars Ergonomic Design Flat/Riser for Outdoor Sports Cycling 640/660/680/700mm

I've always wanted to try these on my full suspension mountain bike but was nervous about the durability. I recently purchase a mtb for my son and decided to try them out for him (he's 50lbs vs me at 200lbs). After receiving them I mounted a headset on my weight bench and mounted the bars. They held my entire body weight and I was confident enough to put them on my son's bike. Now I'm going to order some for my gravel bike but I'm still a little leary about putting them on my full suspension. Very light and look good. For the money I am very happy.

My background....I've been riding mtn bikes over 20yrs....I've raced XC/Enduro. I've owned more bikes than I can recall and broken pretty much every frame and component(all but one ti hardtail frame and have never seen a broken stem) . I'm 6'4, 215 and ride "aggressively"....my local trail is a 6 mile loop with lots of jumps, 6-8' drop ins, launch to flat, rock gardens, pinch climbs, techy stuff...a good place to test out yourself and your gear. I bought this bar to put on my '18 Transition Patrol.It's cheap and has some bad reviews...but anything can get bad reviews, and if you know anything about the bike industry you know that a lot of the big name frames and components are made in the same factory...only difference is sticker/branding. This bar looks exactly like my carbon Race Face Next bar, but without any branding. So, I gave it a go. I hopped around my street then headed to the trail. I was a little shy at first but then started riding without any worry about half way through the loop. It's my guess this is the same bar a Race Face or many other brands would buy then brand and sell for at least 5 times the amount. If this bar can handle my size pounding on it from a 6' launch to flat then I'd say it's worth giving a try! And like any product there will be bad seeds...just ask SRAM about my three warranty replacements on their crappy Guide brakes!

Definitely an upgrade to any thing they go on very high-end looking. I was very very pleased to say the least makes my scooter look hundred dollars more expensive absolutely love them.

When I bought these I was excited a new pair of bars, carbon. They looked great. First ride with them I went off of a 2 foot drop and they snapped sending me off the bike, all I remember was holding onto a half a bar as I was going to the ground. Thank god I was not hurt seriously. I would not suggest these for anyone and hope no one buys these for your safety spend the money and get a reputable brand.These are dangerous.

Nice bars, lightweight and measure perfectly. Make sure you use fiber grip paste and don't overtorque them when installing. Takes a lot of the vibration out of gravel and dirt paths. I don't do extreme biking, so this is great for me! 4 stars because there are a couple of blemishes if you look closely, and the interior diameter is a little bigger than my alloy bars, so the plastic caps won't stay in!

Installed these on my Trek Marlin 6. They are 4” wider and that makes a huge positive difference in the way the bike steers and turn. Much more stable.

The bar looks good, no defects. However, when attaching the shifter, brakes, and grips, they all want to slide or move. The center of the bar has something abrasive to prevent the bar from moving on the stem, but the ends of the bar should have it too. I might have to spray something sticky to keep the grips and the items I listed above from moving around.

Purchased the 740mm, it's identical in length to my 750mm. Weight is light. 174grams!! Appears strong. I was able to stand on it while it was braced between 2 chairs and it didn't flex. I tried leaning on it while braced and no flex. It's a winner. I weight 202lbs.

Currently in use on a commuter bike.
